Making settings for VoIP
telephony

Before you can use the Internet (VoIP) to

phone any other users on the Internet, the

fixed network or the mobile phone net-

work, you need the services of a VoIP pro-

vider who supports the VoIP SIP standard.
Precondition: you have registered (e.g.

via your PC) with a suitable VoIP provider

and set up at least one VoIP account.
The following phone settings are neces-

sary in order for you to use VoIP. You will

receive all information from your VoIP pro-

vider.

u

Your user name with the VoIP provider,

if this is required by the VoIP provider

u

Your registration name

u

Your password with the VoIP provider

u

VoIP provider general settings

The connection assistant will help you

with the settings.

Starting the connection assistant

Precondition: The base station is con-

nected to the mains power supply and a

router. Your router is connected to the

Internet (page 11).
Tip: If

VoIP

is activated as the default con-

nection for your phone (default setting

page 67), the phone will attempt to make

a direct connection to your VoIP provider's

server after the connection assistant is

closed. If incorrect/incomplete informa-

tion means that the connection cannot be

established, messages will be displayed

(page 14).

As soon as the handset battery is suffi-

ciently charged, the message key

f on

the handset will flash (around 20 minutes

after you have put the handset in the

charging cradle). Press the message key

f to start the connection assistant.
You will see the following display:

§Yes§

Press the display key to start

the connection assistant.

Enter the system PIN (default

is '0000').

If you press

§No§

, the procedure that fol-

lows is described below.

Downloading VoIP provider data

The phone establishes a connection with

the Siemens server on the Internet. Pro-

files with general access data for various

VoIP providers can be downloaded here.
After a brief period you will see the follow-

ing display:

Please note:

Your phone is preconfigured for dynamic

assignment of the IP address. In order for your

router to 'recognise' the phone, dynamic IP

address assignment must also be activated on

the router, i.e. the router's DHCP server is acti-

vated. Turn to page 69 to find out how to

assign your phone a static IP address if neces-

sary.

Please note:

The connection assistant will also start auto-

matically if you try to establish a connection

via the Internet, before you have made the

necessary settings.
You can also call up the connection assistant

at any time via the menu (page 68).
